Nice work Steve, I think you might find that Jaegermeister is better known as a 'herbal liqueur' than a 'digestif formulator' but lets not quibble about it, Jaegermeister has many other names in Germany including Gorings Schnapps and Liver Glue

And it's in the US also known as hotelroom destruction starter since Metallica discovered it.

Don't forget "Hörnerwhiskey"!

As an aside, I can relate to that Metallica story. The only time ever I imbibed more than a moderate quantity of that... er, stuff, I had a complete blackout (and I mean COMPLETE) until awakening the next morning (midday? evening?? week???), still wearing my shoes whilst lying in bed! Never happened to me before or since...

Except March 741s didn't have that shape sidepod, they had the normal March parrallel sides with an S shape at the front.The wedge shaped tub was made by Roy Lane for hillclimbing.

741 colour schemes are amusing - one car started green and the other was orange, as they were crashed (one had 4 tubs the other 3 tubs in the season!) various different colour panels/tubs were fitted presumably depending on what was to hand.

The article above tells the story, and includes this remarkable bit: "this third tub for 741-1 was 741-2's second tub, straightened after being damaged in Brambilla's most recent accident!" (Four plus three equals six.)
